Scored some Wrangler rims for my play tyres when they come. These tyres are pretty well used up but all is well, mainly wanted the rims. Saves buying spacers to fit bigger tyres.

Do you realise you still need to use spacers to run those rims on a WH.

Doesn't matter what size tyre you want to run, the rim will touch the front calliper with out a 6mm spacer.

Unfortunately greenjk is correct Bloke.....

You either need to run some spacers, or get some different rims with less positive offset. WH standard rims have 50.8mm positive offset, so you need some standard Commander rims with 43.8mm positive offset or some aftermarket rims.

Note: Commander and JK Wrangler rims are both 43.8mm offset, but the Commander rims clear the WH calipers without fouling.

Question

Yep second that, JK rims foul on the front calliper’s. There has been some exceptions due to different castings of the JK rims but generally it’s a no go.

Where are you located? I have some stock WH LTD rims you can have. Will need a paint to look pretty but they are free.
OR
You could also use WJ 17” rims with those tyres.

With 245/75/17 tyres both will do the job no brake clearance issues.
